Okay, so you have the Cooking Skill to train. And you also have the Fishing Skill to train. So how do you train them both effectively? You train them together, of course! You catch the fish yourself and then cook them yourself - so you get experience for both skills. Plus, you also save money this way!

Note: these methods are available for both F2P and P2P.

Steps

Method1

Fishing Level 1-15

1

Obtain a net. You can buy this at any of the fishing stores, at the Grand Exchange or trade other players for it. Fish for shrimps, anchovies or sardines with your net. There are good fishing spots for this just south of the bank in Al-Kharid, west of the bank in Draynor and behind the church in Lumbridge.

2

Bank all the fish every time your inventory is full.

Method2

Cooking Level 1-15

1

Cook all the fish you just caught. Either go to the cooking range inside Lumbridge castle, or get some logs and a tinderbox and make a fire yourself.

2

Go and catch more fish and cook that as well, until both your Fishing and Cooking is level 15.

Method3

Fishing Level 15-30

1

Obtain a fly-fishing rod and feathers for bait. Go to the river east of the Barbarian Village. Fish there for salmon, trout or pike.

2

Bank the fish when your inventory is full. The Edgeville bank is closest.

3

Repeat until you have level 30 Fishing.

Method4

Cooking Level 15-30

1

Cook all the fish you caught.

2

Continue with this until your Cooking is level 30. You may have to go out and fish more, to reach the desired Cooking level.

Method5

Fishing Level 30-70

1

Obtain a harpoon and lobster pot.

2

Take 30 coins and go to the docks at Port Sarim. Use the coins to pay to go to Karamja.

3

Go to the fishing spot on Karamja and use the harpoon to fish for tuna.

4

Once you get level 40 fishing, use the lobster pot to fish for lobsters.

When your inventory is full run to the side of the volcano, where a man, Stiles, is sitting. He will exchange your fish for banknotes, so you needed run to a bank all the time.

Method6

Cooking Level 30-70

1

Cook all the tuna and lobsters you have caught on Karamja.

Method7

Fishing Level 70-99

1

Take your harpoon and thirty coins and go to Karamja again, via Port Sarim. This time, use the harpoon to fish for both tuna and swordfish. Let Stiles turn them into banknotes for you.

2

Go to Lumbridge or Falador.

Method8

Cooking Level 70-99

1

Cook all the tuna and swordfish, preferably on a range, not a fire, until you reach level 99. Congratulations!

Tips

If you have the Lumbridge Explorer's Ring 3, make sure to wear it when you go to Karamja. This way you can simply teleport out of there again to the cabbage field and you can save on paying the boat fare out of there again.
